GINNY'S STORY



IN THE SUMMER OF 2019, GINNY NOTICED A SMALL LUMP ON HER HIP THAT OVERTIME STARTED TO GROW AND CAUSE PAIN. AFTER AN MRI IT WAS DETERMINED THAT GINNY HAD A SOFT TISSUE MASS ON HER LEFT THIGH. A BIOPSY WAS DONE DECLARING THE MASS A BENIGN HEMATOMA. IT WAS REMOVED IN EARLY OCTOBER. A FEW DAYS AFTER SURGERY GINNY WENT TO THE ER AFTER COUGHING UP BLOOD. A CT OF THE CHEST REVEALED IN-NUMEROUS NODULES ALL OVER HER LUNGS. AFTER 9 DAYS IN THE HOSPITAL AND 74 TESTS, GINNY WAS DIAGNOSED WITH STAGE IV CIC-DUX4 ROUND CELL SARCOMA ON OCTOBER 21ST, 2019. THE PRIMARY TUMOR WAS WHAT THEY THOUGHT WAS THE HEMATOMA AND IT HAD ALREADY SPREAD TO THE LUNGS, MAKING IT STAGE IV AT DIAGNOSIS WITH A VERY POOR PROGNOSIS FOR LONG TERM SURVIVAL. SINCE NOVEMBER 2019 GINNY HAD BEEN ON MULTIPLE CHEMO TREATMENTS, HAD WHOLE BRAIN RADIATION, RADIATION AND SURGERY TO HER LEFT THIGH. ON AUGUST 15, 2021 GINNY PASSED AWAY PEACEFULLY AT HOME FOLLOWING HER COURAGEOUS BATTLE. THE FAMILY AND FRIENDS GINNY LEFT BEHIND WILL CONTINUE TO FIGHT THIS HORRIBLE DISEASE IN HER HONOR. PLEASE CONTINUE TO DONATE IN HONOR OF GINNY. WE WON'T STOP UNTIL WE FIND A CURE.
